A new version of Colorgate’s Productionserver software for RIP, colour management and digital print automation has been released.

Version 26 introduces enhancements designed to improve production efficiency, workflow automation and colour consistency in industrial digital printing including garments and textiles.

For industrial printing environments, it introduces the “Linearization Assistant Plus” module for Industrial Productionserver, combining base linearization with Colorgate’s established linearization and profiling technologies.

This solution allows operators to compensate for gradual printhead wear and other production-related deviations with a single measurement.

It is designed to restore colour consistency without requiring new printer profiles, minimising downtime and helping maintain consistent production quality, especially in demanding industrial and decorative printing environments.

Version 26 also introduces the new Industrial Productionserver Essential portfolio. This new product family streamlines Colorgate’s industrial offerings by replacing various previous configurations with standardised software packages tailored to specific application areas including textiles.

The four editions – called Textile PS Essential, Ceramic PS Essential, Décor PS Essential and Packaging PS Essential – provide comprehensive functionality for their respective markets, aimed at making the portfolio easier to understand, deploy and maintain.

Colorgate CEO Oliver Luedtke said: “Innovation only creates value when it makes production more efficient. With Version 26, we address the daily challenges our customers face, from accelerating data processing and reducing manual effort to maintaining consistent colour quality.

“The result is a release that helps customers improve productivity, increase process reliability and maximize the value of their existing production environments.”

Version 26 is available immediately. Customers with an active Value Pack as of 10 June 2026 are eligible for a free software upgrade.
